Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

The sub-female insect following behind Jian Chi was activating the video communication function on the smart brain bracelet.

The person he was communicating with was none other than Elvis's mother-in-law, Hugh.

Hugh frowned as he looked at Jian Chi, who remained motionless on the other side of the video.

Logically, Jian Chi should have boarded the aircraft and left immediately after seeing the message from Elvis.

Why are you standing there without moving?

Why is Jian Chi standing still?

Because he triggered the scenario.

[The trigger scenario is that when Elvis messages him saying he wants to stay for a few days, he agrees and leaves Mittel Manor by airship.]

The system doesn't lie.

So what the system said is true; in the original storyline, this message was indeed sent by Elvis.

Since the scenario was triggered and the message was indeed sent by Elvis, Jian Chi naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Okay, I understand."

After returning to Elvis, Jane boarded the aircraft, and a minute later, the aircraft started up and left Mittel Manor.

After receiving the message and watching Jian Chi leave, Hugh, who was holding the Elvis smart bracelet, felt relieved.

"That's fine."

After saying that, he ended the communication.

Looking at the AIVIS smart bracelet in his hand, he murmured to himself:

"Elvis, I told you long ago, all male insects are the same. You'll find out sooner or later that only I, only the Mittel family, are the only ones you can rely on..."

He then activated his smart bracelet and sent a message to Chad.

"My lord, Jian Chi has already left without asking Elvis."

He quickly responded, "Yes, send Elvis to His Highness the Third Prince tomorrow."

The Third Prince has peculiar tastes; he particularly enjoys playing with ugly, half-insect-like creatures.

If you encounter someone you like, you can force them to become half-insects even if they don't have one, and then play with them again.

Hugh hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Wait until he comes back..."

"If he can please the Third Prince, I can forgive him for resigning from his military post when he returns. He will still be a worm in the Mittel family."

Upon hearing this, Xiu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

That's good.

"See, Elvis, only your father truly cares about you..."

the other side.

The sub-female insect, who was about to leave, was stunned to see Jian Chi return.

"Where is Elvis?"

The sub-female insect was startled and stammered, "I...I don't know either. Your Excellency, didn't you already leave?"

"I did leave, but I broke my promise, so I'm back."

Jian Chi smiled gently, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "Since you don't know, go ask someone who does."

The sub-female in front of him was petite with delicate features, and a full head shorter than him.

"Now that Elvis has married me, he is my property. He can't go anywhere without my permission. Ask any insects who know, or I won't hesitate to call the Male Insect Protection Association."

The female insect was initially trying to find an excuse, but upon hearing about the Male Insect Protection Association, she immediately backed down.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go ask for you right away."

"Ask here."

"..."

There was no other way, so the sub-female insect had to bite the bullet and open the smart bracelet in front of Jian Chi, sending a message to Xiu Yi, relaying every word Jian Chi had said.

When Hugh saw this message, his face immediately darkened.

What exactly happened that made Jian Chi change his mind?

He thought about it for a moment. No matter what the reason, Jian Chi was the master. If he really wanted to do something reckless, those sub-female insects wouldn't dare to stop him.

After all, as Jian Chi said, Elvis was his queen, his possession.

Therefore, he is in the right in this matter.

Thinking of this, he sent a message.

"Wait, I'll be right there."

The female insect immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

Jian Chi didn't respond; he was still processing the system in his mind.

I don't care whether Elvis sent that message or not. I've said it before, he's my property, and he can't stay here without my permission.

So what if he agreed? As a male insect, it's perfectly normal for him to go back on his word.

Soon, he saw Elvis's mother, Hugh.

Hughes walked over, looking apologetic:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jian Chi, Elvis said he had a bit of a headache and has already gone to bed, so I came over."

He paused for a moment, then asked with a smile, "Does Lord Jian Chi have something important to discuss with Elvis?"

Where is he?

"He's naturally in a place where he can rest and sleep. Your Excellency Jian Chi, why don't you go back first, and I'll have him come to find you when he wakes up?"

Jian Chi remained unmoved, his expression gentle, but his words brooked no argument:

"Let him come to me. Either he has to please me and get my permission to stay, or he can just leave with me."

Hugh's smile froze.

"Is it really impossible to make an exception? I haven't seen Elvis in a long time and I miss him very much. Please understand my feelings as a father figure..."

"no."

Seeing Xiu Yi's appearance, Jian Chi had no desire to deal with him any longer.

"Okay, since he's not coming, I'll go find him. Where is he?"

Hugh lowered his eyes, concealing the coldness in them.

Sure enough, all the male insects look the same.

He sighed and said helplessly:

"I'm sorry, Lord Jian Chi, Elvis is my insect cub. I haven't seen him in a long time and really want to spend more time with him."

How about this, you go find him yourself. If you can find him on your own, we won't stop you, okay?

They say they won't stop you, but they do stop you at every turn.

something wrong.

Although Jian Chi had noticed it long ago.

He smiled.

"You said it yourself."

Hugh nodded confidently.

"Yes, that's what I said. However, there are some places the Mittel family can't go. I'll remind you later. And please rest assured, Ivis is definitely not in those places."

He didn't think Jian Chi could find the dark room.

The location of the Black Room is very secluded, while the Mittel family's estate is very large.

Jian Chi nodded.

【precious.】

【what? 】

Can you pinpoint Elvis's location?

[It will consume energy...]

It's almost gone, and I'm so heartbroken!

"Honey, are we friends?"

【…】

【Um? 】

Yes, right...?

Since we're friends, shouldn't we help each other when needed?

【…】

Ultimately, the system reluctantly used a small amount of energy to locate Ivis's position.

Having obtained the location, Jian Chi headed towards the dark room without the slightest hesitation.

He didn't even pretend he had taken the wrong turn.

Xiu Yi, who was following behind Jian Chi, was extremely shocked.

How is that possible?

Could it be that Elvis actually told Jian Chi the location of the dark room?

If it weren't for this reason, how could Jian Chi have walked so accurately towards the dark room without the slightest hesitation?

Soon, Jian Chi arrived at the dark room; the door was locked from the outside.

He looked at Hugh, smiling gently, and asked, "Can you open the door now?"

Xiu Yi, with a complicated expression, told Jian Chi about the combination lock.

Jian Chi arrived at the door, entered the password, and the door to the dark room slowly opened.
